NHTSA Complaint #10245629 — 2008 HONDA ACCORD

MAKE : HONDA MODEL : ACCORD MODEL YEAR 2008 OTHER ESSENTIAL INFORMATION - I WANT TO BRING TO YOUR ATTENTION THAT THE INSIDE OF THE HONDA ALLOY WHEELS ARE NOT SEALED OR PAINTED FROM THE FACTORY. THE WHEEL IS ALREADY CORRODING THE ALUMINUM WITH PITS WITH METAL MISSING. AFTER 2 MORE WINTERS THE SALT ON THE ROADS WILL DANGEROUSLY WEAKEN THE WHEEL STRENGTH LEADING TO FAILURE AT SPEED. THIS IS A REAL HIDDEN DANGER THAT I THOUGHT SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO SINCE HONDA DEALER SEES NO PROBLEM WITH THE CORRODING ALUMINUM. IF THE WHEELS WHERE SIMPLY PAINTED OR CLEAR COATED FROM THE FACTORY ON THE INSIDE LIKE THEY ARE ON THE OUTSIDE THEN THIS WOULD NOT BE BECOME THE HIDDEN DANGER THIS TYPE OF WHEEL WILL PRESENT TO THE UNSUSPECTING PUBLIC. *TR
